Spacing

My husband and I are thinking about trying for our second baby. We have a little boy who turned one in sept, do you think it's the right time to try again?? We want another one and we don't want them too far apart.... Just a little scared

We have already started the potty training and he sleeps all night in his room, those were my arguments as well lol I DO NOT want two in diapers! He likes his potty chair just hasn't gotten the hang of it ...

I think you will be fine. My daughter turned 1 Aug 2nd and we are going to start trying soon. Probably Feb or March so by the time the next baby is born she will be around 2 1/2. I figure we can get her potty trained by then. I think it is a good space in b/w kids! They will be friends : )

I had my 2nd when my oldest was almost 4, would've liked them a little closer but that age gap I think was perfect! My oldest was able to be more involved and was so excited to be a little mommy. She was potty trained and all.
We're spacing them that far again now. My youngest will be 4 January and we've been TTC since may.
BUT do as y'all please :) keep in mind it takes several months to get pregnant and just always keep your little boy involved as much as possible :) GL

My girls are 23 months apart. My oldest turned one that oct. and we conceived in dec. I was super scared to. My husband wanted them two years apart and I wanted more like three years lol but it took us a long time to conceive our first so we decided to start ttc early and we conceived the second month of trying. I was terrified of having two in diapers and the whole bit but it has been amazing and I wouldn't change it. It was not at all as hard as I was imagining it to be. Have two in diapers was not that bad because as my oldest got bigger the less diapers she went through then when she was ready to be potty trained she was ready so she trained super easy. She has done amazing with her little sister and its awesome to watch them grow and play together. We are planing on ttc our third starting this coming June so that will be a little bit bigger of a gap around 2 1/2 years but thats because we are hoping for a different time of the year but if we do end up having a fourth after that we will do two years difference like our first two again. So if you feel you and your hubby are ready then go for it you will be fine! If you ever have questions or just want to talk my here is my e mail Peytons1221@yahoo.com

My boys are 20 months apart and I love how close they are. They are 2 and 4 years old now and have the best time together! They play with the same toys and enjoy the same kind of adventures. I am so glad we had them so close in age. We are ttc #3 now!

I don't have any babies of my own yet so I can't comment on having two small children close in age, but from a health perspective the recommended minimum time between pregnancies is 18 months to allow your body to fully recover.
